The Graduate

 I'm so behind in blogging this! There's been so much that has gone on in the last month it's been nuts! But that's summer for you I guess.

My man graduated!!! I am so proud of him for everything he has accomplished. Just in the last year and a half alone. It's hard work juggling a full time/demanding job, family and college. But he did it, with all A's too! I married a smarty-pants that's for sure! He is proof that no matter who you are, soldier or civilian, no matter your age. If you are determined you can do anything. He's such an inspiration to me!

I didn't get to see him up close to get his degree. It decided to rain as soon as the ceremony started so we got rushed into a building on campus to watch the video streaming online. Then it stopped raining right when it was done. Of course that's just our luck. But it was an overall good day! Cheers to my man!

{copycat tuesday} Toddler edition

 I decided to switch it up for this week and let Riley take the spotlight. This little fashionista deserves it! She's such a stylish lady. Can't really say she copied it seeing how she's not on Pinterest. But It wasn't hard to find a similar outfit to hers. She's loving her little boots her daddy got her. It's all she ever wears now.

{Fashion Friday} Leopards and Skaters

Fashion Friday is here. A little late in the day but better late than never right? I must admit it's been hard for me to get back into the swing of things after all the family being here. As well as everything else going on. Which is a ton! Nothing out of the norm for an Army wife. But a lot of stuff at the same time. Thankfully summer is fast approaching and Riley will be out of school in a few weeks. Apparently this school has the longest school year ever! Not getting out til the end of June. There goes most of the summer months. I hope to get much more blogged in the coming weeks. Get back into my groove before being "lazy in the summer"  becomes my new mentality and takes me over completely.

Do any of you have the same problem towards the end of the school year? I can't be the only one.....

{conversations with a five-year old}

While all the family was visiting I overheard some pretty hilarious conversations they had with little miss Riley.

Uncle: No one watches tv during the day

Riley: Well maybe an uncle show

Uncle: An uncle show?

Riley: Yeah you're the uncle ! 

{Watching the new Cinderella preview}

Mommy: That's it? That shoe looks really uncomfortable 

Uncle: Who's going to fit into that shoe

Riley: ....Cinderella 

Uncle: Relax were on vacation 

Riley: Yeah were on vacation man relax 

Grandpa : when my checker gets to your side You say "king me"

Riley: and you say queen me!

Found on Fitzroy Boutique

Annnnnddd I'm back!  It's been such a roller coaster of excitement lately. Leaving me pretty busy or really exhausted. Where I just want to sit on the couch and watch movies all day long. 

Don't we all wish we could do that?! 

Here's this weeks copycat fashion. I found this one on pinterest. I linked back to the original website. 

I love the bold blue with the neutral colors!

Things I'm loving

There are so many things I'm loving this week. If you haven't heard we are moving to hawaii next summer and that's pretty exciting. A lot of red tape because this is a different kind of move so that's all complicated. But living at the beach sounds pretty luxurious don't ya think?? 

We are very thankful that God has allowed to live in such amazing places. They are always places we would never imagine living but we make the best of it and we have awesome adventures together and make great memories! 

Also we had all the family last week for the hubby's graduation. Can't believe that was already a week ago {blogging that soon} but they all left and Evans little brother stayed longer with us. I can't even remember the last time we had some bonding time with just him. I think this might be the first time. We've been having so much fun exploring the historical sites with him and introducing him to our favorite New England traditions.

He's having a lobstah roll!!! 

What are you loving this week? 

{Fashion Friday} Stripes obsession

I can't believe it's already friday! I'm already losing track of my days. I've had a ton of major things going on lately plus a house full of family! The hubby graduating, preparing for our move, getting Riley ready for Kindergarten next year.

That's bound to make anyone's brain go a little wonky. I'm getting a a hold of my life again and getting organized. I always feel so much better when I cross things off of my list. 

I decided to go with a simply spring outfit. Maybe channeling my need to simplify my life right now. Not sure, either way it works.
